A LOVE EVERLASTING

Created: 07/07/06
I PURCHASED THIS DVD FOR MY PARTNER,AS I HAD ALREADY WATCHED AND BEEN CAPTIVATED BY THE BEAUTY OF NOT ONLY THE VISUAL EFFECTS,BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY THE MESSAGE OF THE FILM,WHICH IS THAT LOVE IS ETERNAL AND THERE IS NOTHING A SOUL WOULD'NT FACE FOR THE LOVE OF HIS/HER SOULMATE,
I READ A VAST AMOUNT OF BOOKS AND TO SEE THE STORY OF THE TWIN-FLAME SO BEAUTIFULLY PORTRAYED IS SOMETHING I HAVE LONGED TO SEE,ONLY SMALL POCKETS OF ESOTERIC RELIGIONS AND SPIRITUAL SEEKERS HAD KNOWLEDGE OF THE TWIN FLAME PHENOMENA,
AND THAT BEING THAT EACH ONE OF US WAS DIVIDED FROM ONE WHOLE BEING COMPRISING MALE AND FEMALE COUNTERPARTS,AND THAT THE DIVISION WAS SO PAINFUL THAT EACH PART CANNOT BE WHOLE WITHOUT THE OTHER,AND SO BEGINS A JOURNEY TOWARDS RE-UNION AND IT IS THIS DYNAMIC THAT IS PLAYED OUT SO BEAUTIFULLY IN THE FILM,AS LIKE ANY TWIN FLAME ONE CANNOT BE SEPERATED FROM THE OTHER WITHOUT ENORMOUS ANGUISH AND DESPAIR,AND IS THE REASON IT IS RARE TO HAVE ON EARTH AS THE OTHER WOULD COMMIT SUICIDE TO BE WITH THE OTHER HALF OF THE FLAME,
THIS IS A FILM I CANNOT RECOMMEND TO YOU HIGHLY ENOUGH,IT WILL AWAKEN A LOVE WITHIN YOU THAT HAS LONG BEEN BURIED BY THE HARDSHIPS OF LIFE,AND REMIND YOU OF LOVE THAT IS ALWAYS WITH YOU AND WILL NEVER END,
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO WATCH IT,IT CAN TWIST AND TURN YOU A LITTLE BUT YOU WILL COME THROUGH IN GLORIOUS COLOURS,
I TRULY BELIEVE IF YOU ARE READING THIS THEN YOU WERE GUIDED TO IT FOR A REASON,PLEASE FOLLOW THAT GUIDANCE AS IT DIRECTING YOU TO SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL,
AND IT ALL STARTS WITH THIS WONDERFUL FILM,
WARM REGARDS
MARK

What dreams may come....Robin Williams - at it again !!

Created: 26/04/06
Visually stunning - with Very Special effects.
Next to Whoopi Goldberg's "Ghost" - the story must be unique for Hollywood...
Script is disappointing in places - thought I was seeing a movie that would spawn many similar at the time - though not to be - this movie stands out alone as a representation of the "Afterlife" like no other movie I have seen.
If you have ever questioned continued existence after 'death' I urge you to see this movie.
From a very human story of grief and love lost - it becomes a passionate epic of searching - pining - and eventually reuniting. Painful at times to share the characters experiences, but ultimately - if actually considered - the movie might even change your perspective.
I loved it.

What Dreams May Come

I bought this movie on eBay, as I'm a fan of Robbie Williams work and I wasn't expecting much as I hadn't even done as much as see a trailer for the film.

I can tell you it was worth every penny, the visual images of heaven and hell are truly stunning, theres plenty of twists and it genuinly made me cry. It is deffinatly one of my favorite films, and I'ld recomend it to anyone.

Had seen this film a while ago but as it never seems to be repeated on TV/Sky, thought I woud purchase my own copy.
One of those films you can watch again and again and not just a soppy girly 'love film' - for both sexes!
Shame that there is one use of the F word, as otherwise it would eb suitable for younger children but now can't show this to my 8 year old!
Special effects are pretty good and has a feel good factor about it, so would recommend.
